Abstract

A visor shell is formed of two parts with a thin plastic sheet covering each part and another plastic sheet at the interface of the two parts.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
       1. Sun visor for motor-powered vehicles comprising a visor body formed of two parts which are arranged about a partition plane which is located between two outer surface sides of the sun visor, one outer surface side turned toward the windshield and one outer surface side turned away from the windshield when the sum visor is positioned for use, an inside frame positioned between the two parts of the visor body; and a covering over the visor body, said two parts of the visor body being formed of a plastic, said covering including two thin sheets of plastic which are formed together along a partition joint of the visor body by a weld seam, and a thin sheet disposed between the two parts of the visor body and made of the same material as the covering to provide material accumulation in the area of the weld seam. 
     
     
       2. Sun visor as in claim 1, wherein the two parts of the visor body are joined with one another by connection means. 
     
     
       3. Sun visor as in claim 2, wherein the connection means are formed by the cooperation of material parts of the two parts of the visor body. 
     
     
       4. Sun visor as in claim 3, wherein the two parts include a recess and the connection means are formed at least partially by segments of the inside frame inserted in the recesses of the two parts of the visor body. 
     
     
       5. Sun visor as in claim 4, wherein the inside frame is formed of a plastic. 
     
     
       6. Sun visor as in claim 5, wherein the inside frame is constructed of one piece to reinforce the visor body. 
     
     
       7. Sun visor as in claim 6, wherein the inside frame includes means for the pivotal bearing of the visor body. 
     
     
       8. Sun visor as in claim 7, wherein the inside frame has an H-profile in cross-section, so that the recesses of the two parts of the visor body can receive the inside frame. 
     
     
       9. Sun visor as in claim 8, wherein at least one segment of the inside frame has ribs formed in channels of the H-profile, which ribs are configured in one piece with the material parts limiting the channels. 
     
     
       10. Sun visor as in claim 9, wherein the inside frame has a further rectangular inside frame within, configured in one piece with it, and the further inside frame limits a cutout of one part of the visor body and a recess turned toward this cutout in the other part of the visor body, and that into the recess and the cutout is inserted the further inside frame with a mirror. 
     
     
       11. Sun visor as in claim 9, further including a lighting device in the inside frame. 
     
     
       12. Sun visor as in claim 10, wherein the thin covering sheet covering the part of the visor body incorporating the cutout engages on limiting walls of the cutout and recess. 
     
     
       13. Sun visor as in claim 5, wherein the inside frame is formed of polypropylene plastic.
